Grilled Squab with Balsamic Glaze and Grilled Peach
Recipe by: Chef Isaac Bernstein
Squab is relatively new to the kosher market. Its meat is mildly gamey and makes a perfect appetizer portion. Squab does really well with grilling as the skin gets crispy and the meat still remains a nice rosy medium.
These birds pair well with a sweet and sour garnish which contrasts nicely with the gamey meat. And balsamic reduction is good on pretty much anything.
